Title:
  Workspace switcher shows tooltips constantly that won't disappear

Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-panel

  Since I've upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10, I've noticed that the tooltips in
  the workspace switcher that show the name of the selected window
  ("Click to start dragging ...") will sometimes not go away.  It seems
  to happen most if I use the mouse to click on a different screen in
  the switcher, then move my mouse right away (but not RIGHT away--just
  about the time it normally takes me to move my mouse away, apparently)
  out of the switcher into the normal desktop.

  In that case the tooltip that the switcher pops up does not go away
  again: it's like some event was missed or something.  The tooltip will
  stay there forever until I (a) switch to another desktop with CTRL-
  ALT-<arrow> or similar, or (b) move my mouse over either the upper or
  lower panel (any part of it).  Just selecting a different window on
  the same screen doesn't cause the tooltip to go away.

  It's very frustrating because it happens probably 80% of the time that
  I use my mouse to choose a different screen, and I have my screens
  organized by work activity and I'm often switching back and forth.

  It sounds minor but it's extremely annoying to have these yellow
  tooltips showing up and not going away unless I go do something.

  If anyone has any suggestions about ways I could narrow down the
  problem, etc. I'm intereested!!

  I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 64bit, with Workspace Switcher 2.28.0.
